The Williams family of Ennis is now the proud parents of an odd group of triplets. They were selected among the hundreds of applicants who were taken by the story of Judy and Minelli.

“When we first put the application in, we had no idea that we’d be looking at this day.”

The Williams were patient; they waited about four months while their pets recovered at the shelter.

With a final pose for a family picture, they were loaded up, and taken away in a trailer appropriately named the Mayflower, where new and unchartered adventures await them on their three-acre home in Ennis.

The Williams said the pets will be right at home with the other mix of animals they own. They said they have more than 100 pets, everything from a horse, llama and – seriously – 10 goats.
